After Alastair calmed Rachael down, the pair headed towards the main stage, where the band was waiting.
Upon entering the stadium, Alastair looked around in awe.
"Ah!" A voice cried out.
"Hey, sis, they're here!" A woman exclaimed.
Alastair quickly turned his head, met by the lead guitarist of the band, Kas.
"Say, Narine," the woman began, studying Alastair.
"Are you sure this is the guy Riki has a crush on...?" She questioned, biting her lip.
She has a what on me...?! Alastair thought to himself in complete shock.
"Yeah, yeah, that's our man of the hour," another voice called out.
Jumping down from the stage was Narine, who appeared to be in her early twenties; she was the drummer of the band and younger sister of Kas.
"How's it going there, Mr. Spirit Force?" She smirked, extending a hand.
Is this real life...? Am I really meeting my favorite band? Does Riki actually have a crush on me...?!

"Paige has a shoot right now. but she's freaking out; we're all freaking out, so tell me what happened!" She demanded. "I told you already," Alastair began, his chair slowly turning.

Back at the secluded part of Experiment Labs, a car pulled up to the lot. "Master!" A voice called out. "Hey, Master!" The voice chimed again.

Honch asked, turning his attention back to the spirit regenerator. "Well, you know how Mr. Eon asked to borrow me, right?" She asked. "Mhm," Honch nodded, only half paying attention. "Well," she continued. "My assignment was to kidnap some brat, and I pulled it off!" She beamed. Honch turned his head. "Right... there was some child the labs were after for quite a bit, wasn't there?" He questioned. "Mhm, mhm!" Cya nodded her head vigorously. "However," Honch began. "Eon is on vacation, isn't he?" He frowned. "Well," Cya began.

Wandering through a heavy fog was Rachael, looking around helplessly for something or rather someone. "Alastair?" She called out. "Alastair, where are you...?" She whimpered. Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of something familiar. Her eyes twinkled. "Alastair!" She cried out in relief, quickly rushing over to the man and embracing him. The man stood with his back towards the girl, remaining completely still and silent. "Alastair...?" She cocked her head in confusion. As she reached for his hand, Alastair quickly pulled it away. Rachael's eyes widened. "Say, Alastair, we can go home now, yes...?" She whispered. The man's shoulders began bobbing up and down as he suddenly burst out laughing. "We?" He sneered.

As Rachael lay fast asleep on the bed, a little girl began shaking her fervently. "Hey!" The girl called out. "Excuse me...!" She called out once more. The girl then turned her head towards Honch. "It's no good, papa. Is she dead?!" The little girl cried out in alarm. Honch let out a laugh. "She's not dead; I'm sure she's just beyond exhausted, Fiora." He reassured. "But...!" Fiora pouted. "Now, now," he began. "I know you'd like to play with her, but for now," he continued, kneeling. "Let her rest, okay?" He said, patting her head. "F-fine..." Fiora grumbled. Thank goodness she's still fast asleep before she has the opportunity to spot me... Honch thought to himself in relief as he headed towards the door. "Ack!" Fiora suddenly shrieked. "What's the matter, Fiora?!" Honch exclaimed, rushing back over to her. "A bug, a bug, kill it, papa, please kill it!" She desperately pleaded. "Where...?" Honch asked, letting out a sigh.

"B-but...!" Rachael protested, standing up. "Hm?" Honch turned his head. "Oh, right, you..." He frowned. "Worry not, Rachael, I'll have Cya bring you home," he said. "You're letting the person who kidnapped her bring her home...?" Sev questioned, baffled. "Cya has a good heart; she was just following instructions, you see," Honch said with a sigh. "Let us hurry and head down the elevator, now!" He said, looking down from the balcony at the machine anxiously. "M-mm..." Rachael gulped as they left Fiora's bedroom. * After the elevator shaft arrived at the ground level, Cya nor Rosario were anywhere to be found. "Those dimwits...!" Honch cried, placing Fiora down. "Sev!" He barked. "Where on earth did they go?!" He demanded. "Rosario wanted his silly little petal chips, master," Sev explained. "That idiot...!" Honch growled, gritting his teeth in annoyance. *

Rachael asked nervously, tugging on Honch's shirt. "Yes, yes, eventually," he said, sighing. "Papa," Fiora began. "What is it, Fiora?" Honch questioned. "Is mama a nice lady?" She asked. Honch suddenly stopped walking, causing a domino effect of each person bumping into one another. He then smiled softly as if reminiscing. "Ah, she sure is..." He whispered.

"Do whatever it is you want to do," Honch said, swiftly brushing the girl off. Rachael nodded as she watched the other three make their way into the room. * "Where do I turn?" Alastair asked, turning his head around to face Rosario. "F-first of all, keep your eyes on the road, would you?!" Rosario shrieked.
